What a great time to reflect on this past year. It has been incredible what God has done at GTHOP this year. We are so grateful for Him and all the grace He has shown us.
Even this last few weeks have been incredible. We had Stephen Burke from “The Lord will Provide” here, as well as, our friends Graeme & Sabrina Walsh. We saw some incredible healing and prophetic words come from those meetings. We believe the Lord was declaring something prophetic over the whole region when they were here. It was another confirmation for us. God has incredible plans for Traverse City and it is exciting to know that GTHOP is an intricate part of that. That being said, we need to be constantly looking unto Jesus Christ and allow Him to establish what a ministry should be. We are even more excited about what He is going to do in 2012.
That leads us to 2012. We believe the Lord has called the church to go after Jesus in a whole new way this year. The humanistic Gospel is spreading at an alarming rate. We need to combat this false system of thinking by focusing on all that is good, Jesus. Apart from Him we have nothing, no matter if we have known Him for a day or 50 years. He is the only solution to any problem. Our focus will be on Him as King, Prophet, & Priest this year. He is the ministry and the calling. He is the reason for all things.
To start out this upcoming year we are asking all involved with GTHOP to fast the first seven days of 2012. We need to embrace our dependency on Him in a whole new way. We must decrease and He must increase. Also, we are reading “Apostolic Foundations” by Art Katz to start out the new year. We encourage all to read this in the month of January with us. It is a refreshing return to the Man who is the ONLY FOUNDATION to living.
One last note; if you are in the Traverse City region from Dec. 28-31 come and join us as we webstream the onething conference from Kansas City. All afternoon and evening sessions will be shown at the new GTHOP location. Come and renew your passion for God as we worship together.
A special thank you to all who have helped GTHOP this last year. There are so many it would be impossible to list. Thank you for partnering with Jesus and establishing a resting place for Him in Traverse City. Merry Christmas and God bless you.. everyone!
